Shangguan Xiong went straight to the point.
His eyes were full of ruthlessness. As long as Qin Wu killed Qin Yu, then no matter what the result was, he would be the biggest winner.
"How dare you! Lord Shangguan! Do you know what you are talking about? Qin Yu is not only the crown prince of Daliang, but also my younger brother. You actually want me to kill my younger brother. What are your intentions?"
Qin Wu scolded coldly.
There was no panic on Shangguan Xiong's face. He knew very well that Qin Wu wanted to become the crown prince, and no one wanted to kill Qin Yu more than him!
"Qin Yu is corrupt and perverts the law. He is guilty of heinous crimes. He also competes with the people for profits in his business and kills officials without reason. With so many things going on, isn't His Highness Qin Wu angry?"
"There is not a single person in the court who has no complaints against Qin Yu. If His Highness Qin Wu really kills Qin Yu, officials like me will definitely cheer for His Highness!"
"Your Majesty has seen the numerous crimes Qin Yu has committed, and in the face of such ironclad evidence, he cannot utter a single word!"
Shangguan Xiong said in a deep voice.
His words completely touched Qin Wu's heart, and at the same time, gave Qin Wu a reassurance that as long as he did so, he would get the support of the civil and military officials in the court.
However, Qin Wu remembered what Wen Sanhu said, and as long as Shangguan Xiong did not mention the Imperial College, he would never agree to Shangguan Xiong's solicitation.
"How come I've never heard of anything Lord Shangguan said?"
Qin Wu asked back.
Shangguan Xiong frowned, it seemed that Qin Wu was the kind of person who wouldn't release the eagle until he saw the rabbit!
"Your Highness Qin Wu is of humble origin and has no chance of ascending the throne. However, I happen to have a few old acquaintances in the Imperial Academy. If Your Highness Qin Wu can intercede for the officials, I will certainly persuade them to help Your Highness!"
Shangguan Xiong revealed his trump card.
Qin Wu's face lit up with joy, but he remained strong and calm. He said, "Oh! Lord Shangguan has an old acquaintance in the Imperial College. How come I haven't heard of it? Isn't it said that the Imperial College is a group of old stubborn people?"
"Haha! No one is perfect, and I am fortunate enough to know the mistakes they have made. Your Highness Qin Wu, please stop pretending to be ignorant!"
Shangguan Xiong said with a sneer.
He looked at Qin Wu. If Qin Wu continued to pretend in front of him, he would leave immediately and would never say another word to Qin Wu.
"In that case, Lord Shangguan, go back and wait for news. If Qin Yu makes a mistake again, I will definitely take action against him!"
Qin Wu said coldly.
"I will see to it!"
Shangguan Xiong said in a deep voice.
Then he turned and left. As for how to make Qin Yu make a mistake again, he naturally had to find Qin Mang.
Qin Mang’s mansion!
"Ah! Your Highness Qin Mang, please forgive me!"
In the room, several naked young girls were kneeling on the ground begging bitterly. Their snow-white necks and backs were covered with whip marks. Qin Mang was whipping another one at this time.
He has been recuperating these days, but to no avail!
In addition, Qin Wu and Qin Yu both received such great benefits today, Qin Mang's self-esteem was completely hit, so he beat these young girls.
"What's the point of me raising you? You can't even heal this little injury of mine!"
Qin Mang gritted his teeth and scolded.
"Your Highness Qin Mang, we have done our best. You are simply overworked. You will be well again in a few days!"
The girls begged.
Qin Mang's hands did not stop moving, and he kept beating them. At this time, outside the room, Shangguan Xiong stood indifferently!
